PSG Announce signing of Lassa Diarra

The 32-year-old midfielder has signed with the club until the end of the 2019 season, marking a return to Ligue 1 after playing at Al Jazira.

Paris Saint-Germain have announced the signing of former Chelsea, Arsenal and Real Madrid midfielder Lassana Diarra.

Diarra has been a free agent since leaving Al Jazira last month and boosts the midfield options of the Ligue 1 leaders, although PSG coach Unai Emery previously indicated he would not be looking to make signings during the January transfer window.

The Spaniard namechecked 21-year-old Argentine Giovani Lo Celso as a possible solution to the club's defensive midfield issues earlier this month while playing down a move for Diarra.
